Curriculum Development

The Ontario Council of Academic Vice-Presidents has issued new guidelines on University Undergraduate Degree Level Expectations (UUDLEs–pronounced “oodles”). This web site is designed to share resources on how to develop UUDLEs and do curriculum development consistent with the OCAV guidelines. We encourage you to post information you have found useful for curriculum development to this web site, including examples of UUDLEs and curriculum development in your program, or on your campus.

  • The OCAV Guidelines: What are Degree-Level Expectations (DLEs)? Why do we need them?
  • Implementation: How does your program develop DLEs that are appropriate to your unit? Where do you start?
  • Assessment: How will you know your program is successful? What measures will you develop to indicate how your program is performing?
  • Course Design: What implications do degree level expectations have at the course level? How might we change course design or teaching practices to align with DLEs and improve student learning?
  • Leadership: Leading the initiative at your institution.
  • Additional Resources
